What the fuck. If you're only having a shitty salad, you should announce it in advance.
Your friend who orders "just the salad" after you order the deluxe bacon cheeseburger and fries

Why can't you eat what you want, and he eat what he wants? Are you that insecure?

I do t mind the person who orders just a salad.
My problem is with the one person who wants a salad or appetizer and an entree when everyone else in the group just got an entree, making everyone wait while they eat their salad for all the entrees to come together..

I don't mind that as much, r2, as someone ordering a well-done steak or burger.

I don't mind any of these scenarios. Why are you people so picky?

Calm down OP. I ordered a taco salad.

Today in a Village eatery, four out-of-town early twenty types, announced at the end of lunch they wanted three checks. Server spent time figuring out who had what and each had a credit card. If I were server, would have mentioned "in the future always tell us when ordering, it'll be faster for you"

The worst are the ones who just order water. If you have no money, just… don’t attend or mention it to someone at least.

Other people's food choices are not dreamed up in order to reflect back on you, OP.
You should be ashamed of yourself for such ridiculously narcissistic assholery.

R8 ordered the burger on a lettuce leaf with no cheese and extra mustard.

This sounds like it was a very difficult meal for you OP.
Next time return home after finishing your dinner in a stony silence and eat a half gallon of ice cream to get your revenge

Start telling your friend how you have been finding slugs in lettuce lately

“I was going to get the salad too but the last time I ate here I got it and came down with dysentery the next day! It was like The Oregon Trail at my place for a week!”

Depending on the menu, often times a salad is the only reasonably healthy option I can make for myself.

I have an overweight friend who gets upset at the same type of thing.

R14 Does he order the left side of the menu too?

I have a friend who will NEVER order first, and then asks what I’m having but not say what she’s considering or having. If a server comes over and I say, ‘you go first I’m not ready’ she’ll say I’m not ready either you go. It’s like a fucking game of chicken.
We were on a road trip once and I said let’s get some junk food (McDonalds) and she said that sounds great and was in the mood for a burger, fries, shake. I order my meal and she orders a 4 piece McNuggets and water.

Next time let them order first, and then you order only a side of ice chips. That'll show them!

I have a friend (who shall remain nameless) who came to NYC in the 1970s to be a chorus boy. Perpetually broke (and also cheap), he nevertheless joined us every week for our little gathering at a UWS restaurant. He always carefully looked at the menu and then ordered the same thing: french fries and a house salad.
On one occasion, after carefully perusing the menu, he ordered (much to our surprise) just a house salad. Someone (not me) in the group cattily commented, "What's the matter? Have they raised the price of french fries?" We all chuckled and continued with our meal. It was a few minutes later that I discovered that they actually HAD raised the price of french fries.
FYI, my chorus boy/friend is now a world-famous choreographer with Tony and Olivier awards. In his defense, with monies from his first big show - a long-running Broadway musical - he paid off his mother's mortgage.

I have a friend who suggested we meet for lunch twice in the past few months. Each time, she picked the date, the restaurant, and the time - fine with me. When we order, I ordered one of their specials while she ordered a 'side of fries' and a water. I asked her if that was all she was getting - she responded "I already ate before I came." Both times she has done this. First time I said nothing and paid for her fries, of course. I asked her the second time why she would eat before we met for a lunch which she suggested - she then said "I don't get paid until next week". I paid for her fries again (which weren't exactly cheap at the restaurant she chose). I can't figure out why she would suggest we got out to lunch at rather pricey restaurants on her 'off' weeks ? It doesn't make for a very enjoyable lunch. We can just meet for coffee and bagels, instead.
This past Sunday night, she texted me - asking what day this week 'works with my schedule' for lunch. I told her I had no free time this week, or the month of August - my calendar was filled the rest of the summer. I won't be lunching with her any longer.

OP could have done the right thing and immediately told the server that they want to change their order to a salad. Of course OP should have ordered the salad in the first place, but hopefully they learned a lesson.

Oh OP. Was there ever a doubt you weren't going to order that deluxe bacon cheeseburger and fries anyway?

The friend doesn’t seem like much of a friend if they didn’t advise OP that OP would be better off getting something healthier.

Wouldn't mind it, as long as he doesn't start snagging my fries!
